O2 is a diatomic gas, it has only one type of atoms so it is an element while a compound contains at least two types of atoms or elements as HCl .HF , H2O.
Dioxide means an oxygen molecule in a compound. Example CO2 is carbon dioxide, the O2 part is the dioxide.
one o2 molecule
The simplest structured unit in a compound is a molecule.
O2, which is a molecule, because it is diatomic, meaning that it bonded with itself making it a molecule.
a molecule of an elemnt has only one element in it[ duh!!] like for eg. oxygen is O2 and hydrogen is H2. a molecule of a compound has more than one element in it, for example water H2O, HCl , NaCl etc etc
O is an atom, but O2 is a molecule.
O is an atom, but O2 is a molecule.
It could be either. For example, a molecule of O2 or Cl2 is an element, but one of CH4 or NO3 is a compound.
No, O2 is a molecule. However there are oxide ion (O2-), the peroxide ion (O22-), and the superoxide ion (O2-).
a molecule of an element (O2) or compound (CO2)
An oxygen molecule has a non polar covalent bond.
Oxygen is a chemical element; the molecule is diatomic, O2.
O2 molecule / a non polar covalent compound is formed
Most molecules are compounds but not all. Some molecules such as O2 and P4 are elements.
Oxygen is both a compound and an element. In nature, Oxygen forms bonds with itself to form a compound consisting of two elemental oxygen atoms to form one compounded oxygen molecule. This is O2.
O2 is non polar molecule .
O2 is non polar molecule .
